Anne grew up in Atlanta and being active has been an important part of her life since the age of 12 when she became a competitive cheerleader. After a couple knee injuries, she gave up cheerleading and fell in love with the challenge of endurance running and cycling. Finding running to be too high impact, a friend recommended Pure Pilates Austin. She was challenged by the workout every session, and empowered by how strong she felt.

Anne fills her time outside the studio traveling to new places, reading fiction and behavioral science, preparing new recipes, and dancing to hip-hop.
